Hello, all,

If I remember correctly, someone here was asking where to find a suitable puller for removing the rear hubs on the Dodge/Ply cars.

Here's an ebay listing for one of the best quality pullers for that work, a pre-1948 'Plomb' from the Plomb works in Los Angeles. I have one of this set myself, and have had good luck pulling some really badly stuck hubs with it.

(for that matter, I use, and recommend, the Plomb line of automotive wrenches and other tools generally.....any Plomb tool is well over half a century old, by now, but they are worth the time taken to find them, as they are much better tools  than any you can buy new these days.....and that includes the beautifully shiny, but over-rated Snap On tools)

I have no connection whatever with this seller, I just saw the advert when 'surfing' ebay.

(The old Plomb tools were built with a much better quality of steel than that used for the generality of newer tools. After about 1949 or '50, that same line of tools was sold under the 'Proto' brand name. The generality of the Proto tools built in the '50's to early/mid '60's were still good quality, after that, the company was sold, and the new owners cheapened the product.)

cheers
